Saturn Astra is the heading for this topic. Not Ford Focus.

Curious: has any Astra even been out long enough to experience winter weather? I thought it came out in March!

I am a Saturn Sales consultant, the astra was designed with stabiltrak, a major improvement and it is by far heavier the all the older models of saturn. It has Winter Mode, a stabilizing mode for compact cars in adverse weather if you would like some more info please send me a email and I will be happy to do this.

Saturn Astra Problems by jeyatl

All was going well with my Astra until I hit about 6000 miles. It's been in and out of the shop since. First A/C problems, now engine problems. It's been at the dealer for the past 2 weeks and it is still not fixed.

Saturn sold about 500 Astras in January and has seen sales increase steadily since then, hitting nearly 2,000 units last month, spokesman Steve Janisse said.
 
"It definitely did get off to a slow start," he said. "It's been pretty fun to watch it take off."
 
And a price point under $20,000 makes the Astra a good first-car option. There's been a buzz factor in the blogosphere and on the social networking scene, he said.
 
"It seems to be a hit with the younger crowd," Janisse said.

I purched an 08 Astra XR 5 door in July. Love everything about car but auto trans. Don't like it when it shifts into neutral at stop light. When you start up again it seem to hit into gear hard with a jerk. The rest of the car I really like. Fit & finsh is very well done. This is a great little car.
Has the price gone up a lot? Mine has everything, XR, adv audio, sport handling, premium trim, leather seats, auto, no sunroof,total sticker price less tax was $21,655.00. Test car in article had a price of $26,300.00. Maybe not US dollars. Let me know.

Diesel engine as a choice, direct injection gasoline engine as choice, standard XM radio, standard armrest are the changes I'd like to see.
 
The exchange rate is actually OK now since the dollar increased in value compared to Euro, GM has an opportunity to price and market the Astra more aggressively since they are no longer losing money on each one imported.

Perhaps overseas models, especially diesels, are part of the solution to the woes of the North American market.
